In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the almond milk, all-purpose flour, eggs, olive oil, and salt until smooth and well-combined.
Let the batter rest for 10 minutes. This allows the flour to absorb the liquid, helping to ensure your crepes are tender.
Heat a 9-inch non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly coat it with coconut oil.
Pour about 1/4 cup of the crepe batter into the skillet and quickly tilt the pan to spread the batter evenly across the bottom.
Cook for about 1-2 minutes, or until the edges start to lift and the bottom is lightly browned.
Flip the crepe using a spatula and cook on the other side for an additional minute.
Transfer the cooked crepe to a plate and cover to keep warm. Repeat the process with the remaining batter.
Once all crepes are cooked, place a slice of dairy-free cheese and a slice of ham on one half of each crepe.
Spread about 1/2 teaspoon of Dijon mustard over the ham and season with a pinch of freshly ground black pepper.
Fold the crepe in half and then in half again to form a triangle.
Return the filled crepe to the skillet for about 30 seconds on each side, just until the cheese begins to melt.
Serve warm and garnish with chopped chives if desired.
